About MergeCiv
Merge tiles. Build an empire. Master magic. Start with wheat fields and forests. Merge matching tiles to climb through tiers, generating Gold, Wood, Knowledge, and Mana along the way. Hire villagers, build workshops, unlock upgrades, and grow a thriving civilization — all on a single grid. Cast spells. Charge crystals. Ascend. Unlock Mana to cast spells that reshape your grid. Charge crystals, then ascend to earn permanent rituals that make every new run stronger. Push further into the Citadel endgame to unlock elite upgrades and collect rare artifacts that persist forever. Raise a dragon in the Wilds. Enter The Aerie to explore a living 3D valley. Hunt, swim, fly, awaken fire at Cinderwake, and help kobold villages grow. Your original dragon and hoard remain in Classic. Your empire never sleeps. Come back to offline earnings and a speed boost that rewards time away. Sign in with Google or Apple for real-time cloud sync across all your devices. Features: • Merge-based resource generation on a dynamic grid • 50+ upgrades across 5 tiers • Spells, mana, and crystal rituals • Ascension loop — rebuild stronger each time • Citadel endgame with elite research upgrades • Artifact collection with cross-run bonuses • Offline earnings with speed boost • Cloud sync with Google & Apple Sign-In • Cross-device handoff with session locking
What’s new
Version 1.20.0 · Updated October 20, 2026
The Wilds, the Reliquary & Cinderwake • The Wilds comes to iPhone and iPad. Raise a wyvern from hatchling to adult in a living 3D valley. Hunt, swim, fly, awaken fire at Cinderwake, and help kobold villages grow. Your original dragon remains in the Aerie's Classic tab. • Transcension, the Astral Tree and Tier II troops bring new paths beyond the Citadel. The Reliquary raises the artifact imbue cap and opens more rarities to Imbuement. • Artifact cards show exact drop odds. Pioneer's Pack starts new runs with villagers and tiles, and Citadel Plans keep banked Culture across Resettlement and Ascension. • Complete Wilds dragon saves sync across devices through your linked MergeCiv account. • Improved March pathing and Forge production, faster startup, and smoother large battles and Wilds frame pacing. • Offline rewards apply when you return. Bonus Boosts ask for confirmation before spending. • Transcension fully resets Conquest: road progress, army, camp, training, specializations and Valor. Earned Star Pieces are banked before the reset. Full notes: mergeciv.io/changelog.html
